About
Boba was created by a child who wanted a friend. The child that created him was very sickly and didn't get to leave their hospital room often, but they loved magic tricks, so they created him with a Magician in mind; someone to do magic tricks for them while they were too weak to get up or move around.
Over time, the child began to get stronger and didn't need a magician to entertain him anymore. He got out of the hospital and, despite adoring Boba, wanted him to go help other kids feel better. Boba's creator gave him a new purpose; to be a magician for all kids, rather than just for him. These days, Boba still lives with his creator, who is now a young adult, but he travels around putting on random maggic shows for anyone who wants to watch! His main preferred audience tends to be children, and his favorite audience is sickly kids in hospitals. His favorite thing is seeing smiles on other people's faces, and he's happy that his magic can achieve that.

Boba is a huge flirt, and will flirt with nearly everyone that talks to him. He is very respectful, though, and is playful. He absolutely loves putting on magic shows for children and enjoys seeing them happy and making them laugh. He is kind, but also quite cocky and a little full of himself. He rarely doubts his own skills, which can sometimes get him in trouble. He gets along well with just about everyone, but is extremely competitive, though a good sport, and that can make some people like him less - like Sui.

Notes
- His hair is a gradient at the tips.
- His right eye has an eyepatch, not optional.
- His charms aren't optional, either.
Story
Creation
Boba was created by a lonely child in a hospital who had "come across" a strange manual in his backpack that his father had brought him. After reading a book about how to use it, he figured out how to make Boba. His intentions for creation was to have a friend who could keep him busy after chemotherapy treatments, and make him happy when he was feeling down. The child's parents worked a lot to pay his medical bills, so he was often alone, and Boba filled that loneliness with his magic tricks. His creator had always loved magic, Houdini especially, and created Boba because of that.
Magic
Over time, Boba's creator got stronger and stronger, eventually overcoming his cancer. He moved back home and kept Boba around as his best friend throughout middle and high school, and finally moved out on his own in his early twenties, bringing Boba with him. There, as he was taking college classes, he realized that he didn't have time for Boba anymore, and the Furo was getting sad that he couldn't do anything with his purpose anymore. Because of this, his creator told him to go start doing magic shows for the kids at hospitals, or for the neighborhood kids. This excited Boba, and he listened, going out to do Magic for strangers. While out, he began to find that he was rediscovering his love for himself and his purpose. Seeing this, his creator changed his purpose to doing magic not only for him, but for everyone.
Fashion Show
After being released from his initial purpose and given a similar one, Boba began to travel around to do magic shows for kids at many different hospitals. At first, he didn't make any money from it, but now he makes a lot of it. He began to become more influential and popular and was even invited as a special guest to a fashion show, where he met Solei and Sui. Solei was so kind to him that he immediately got a crush, and Sui was very critical of him, yet kind. The two started up a rivalry, and Solei became his best friend. The three hang out often, when Boba isn't at home visiting his creator, of whom he pays rent and college fees for; in repayment of creating him. His creator tries to deny it, but Boba insists. He's a very happy Furo these days and feels fulfilled.
Trivia
- The numbers of his birthday (1-0-9) each correspond with the numbers in the tarot deck and best represent him as a whole. 1 being The Magician, 0 being The Fool, and 9 being The Hermit.
- Boba is very flirty, so it comes off as him being very confident, but it's all a ruse.
- He is afraid of coming off as inadequate, or failing at things.
- Beneath his cocky and flirty exterior, he's very introverted and can be quiet for long periods of time when alone, or with someone he's comfortable with.
- Boba absolutely loves children, since his creator was a child. He knows how to deal with them really well, and finds comfort in their friendship.

Boba considers Solei to be the cutest Furo, or person, that he has ever met. Boba compliments Solei every chance he gets and loves bringing him gifts and surprising him with magic tricks! Solei's joy in response to the magic makes Boba very happy. Solei is so cute to him that it sometimes overstimulates him and can make him a little bit grumpy, or can even cause him to mess up a magic trick! He has a little bit of a crush on Solei, but he would never admit that to them.
Boba sees Yuki as a younger sister. He always enjoys seeing her at his magic shows and has a great time teaching her little magic tricks, making sure to remain patient and kind as he teaches her things, all while listening to her excited rambles about the stars and constellations. He doesn't have much interest in those things, but he listens to everything she says anyways, even asking her questions to help her release her excitement. Overall, he really enjoys her being around and considers every experience with her to be a positive one.
Sui is Boba's rival! He really enjoys messing with him and causing trouble, always trying to one-up him at his own line of work and using magic tricks to make his sewing kits and materials disappear. Boba purposely makes Sui mad, gets kicked out, and then comes back with new patterns from the materials that he took. Sui acts angry at this, but Boba knows he appreciates the creativity and even sees him use some of the designs he creates! Boba really likes Sui, but his favorite thing about him is how much he can get under his skin.
